Council planners have made a decision on plans for 10 new homes in North Lincolnshire.

North Lincolnshire Council's planning committee voted unanimously to pass the application at the former Broughton Infants School playing field at a meeting in Scunthorpe yesterday (Wednesday, February 14).

The plans will see both four bedroom and three bedroom homes built on the site on Broughton High Street.

Concerns were raised by a neighbour about the loss of privacy in the garden and the impact on a hedge.

Councillor Holly Mumby-Croft, whose ward includes Broughton, called in the application on the grounds of "significant public interest".
